Roger Vivier shoes

[kittyland06]

I have found for me that the suede, satin leather or the fabric gommettes work best for me.

The patent just take too long to break in..

agree too! I gave up all the patent collection and changed my heart to suede now

Agree that the suede are the most comfortable. But limited utility in bad weather. I invested all winter in breaking in my patent leather shoes with tights so now I'm finally ok for spring to wear them without. The sacrifices we make!

Hello, I don't know where to post this question or if anyone knows the answer. On the RV logo on the buckle, some say RV and some say R.V. on the ones with the periods, the V has a loop. Does anyone know if the font was changed at any point? I called customer service and they have no idea, as do the Madison ave SA. Thanks!

Any chance you can post a picture of the logo with periods and also pictures of the actual shoes?

Hello again-this is the pair that the SA at RV says are correct-just the RV, no periods afterwards. And the V on this one does not have a loop like my pair.

 

[dianerroy]

And here is my pair. Thanks so much!

I did request a chat from the e-boutique on RV and she thinks they interchange using both logos. My question is, does anyone have a pair of authentic RV that are like mine-meaning the periods after the R and V?

Thank you!!

None of my pairs (which were all purchased directly from RV in Miami or in Paris) over the past 3 years have a period.

The Roger Vivier web site gives you a top view of the buckle for all of the shoes they sell. None appear to have a period between the R and the V. Maybe the place where you bought your pair can help you further. Good luck!

I have just viewed the entirety of this thread and suffice to say I will be acquiring Vivier's soon! I have been through my fair-share of Tory Burch Revas and I want to upgrade. I am considering the U-Look or Gommette although I don't think the almond toe cut of the Gommette will be flattering on my feet...

Welcome! We hope to see a reveal soon!

So I visited the Sloane Street, London boutique yesterday and it was an extremely pleasant experience. I had liaised with the sales assistant before and she transferred a few pairs from other boutiques (Trompette and U-Look) in Europe for me but none of them fit! I am normally a 41-41.5 in designer shoes but it would appear that I required a 40.5 and perhaps a 40 at a push! I was absolutely gutted as she told me that those sizes were sold out and so I tried the Harrods and Selfridges concessions and they didn't have my size either. Suffice to say I was extremely disappointed after running around London like a crazy woman looking for shoes but it was lovely to gain a closer insight into the brand and I will most definitely purchase several pairs when their new collection launches.


Out of curiosity, which style do you think suited me better? The one on the left is the U-Look and the one on the right is the Trompette:






Sizing (in my experience)
Top left: Gommette, true to size
Top right: Trompette, runs slightly larger, go half a size down
1st picture on the left: U-Look, runs slightly larger, go half a size down

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I only have one pair (Gommette) and would love to have more. I also found some sizing inconsistency based on style. I'm going to be a big enabler and say get one of each in different colors. You cannot go wrong with either one. They're both timeless classics. Is there one that felt more comfortable?

Oh dear, don't encourage me! I wanted EVERYTHING. They were both equally comfortable I was just unsure about which would be the best to buy as my first Vivier. The Trompette admittedly looked a bit plain but the cut of the toe box was just stunning; I really liked the U-Look buckle though.. Ugh, I'm such an indecisive mess.

U-Look suits you better

Yes, I understand what you mean about the cut of the toe box of the Trompette. Seeing the Trompette and U-Look side by side on you, IMO, The Trompette has a dressier cut which I associate as more formal and womanly. The U-Look is more casual and girlish in comparison. I actually like the Trompette more on your foot because of that reason.
